dead is precious not one alive

 

dead is precious not one alive

 

Translated from a hindi poem

By

P.R.Ramachander

 

If a mouse  is made of  stone, all people worship it,

But if it is alive , till  they kill it, they   are not peaceful

If the snake is  made of stone,  all people worship it,

But it is alive , they see that  it is immediately killed

If their  mother  and father  are in photo, they worship it,

But if they alive  , no one understands  their value,

 

It   is very   difficult    to understand  ,

Why if some thing is alive   , why we hate it

And why there  is so much love  towards stone.

 

Just like people consider  it a great virtue   ,

If they give a   support ing shoulder to a dead body,

If they think  that   supporting a live person is equally  great virtue

Then  life would become easy

 

Please   think about it once
